Prerequisites

You must have a gift card provider before you can use gift cards with LinkPOS. LinkPOS can be your gift card provider but other options are available and LinkPOS must configure your provider before you can use the settings described here. Once you have a gift card provider these are the settings you can set on the LinkPOS app on each iPad to determine what gift card options are available to the cashiers.

Enable the gift card provider

  1. Log out of the LinkPOS app and touch the cogwheel to get to the manager pages.
